Humanity has wiped out 60% of mammals, birds, fish and reptiles since 1970, leading the world’s foremost experts to warn that the annihilation of wildlife is now an emergency that threatens civilization.   A sweeping report assessing the state of the natural world found that humans are having an “unprecedented” and devastating effect on global biodiversity, with about 1 million animal and plant species now threatened with extinction.  Scottie

Misleading right wing media cartoons / memes

And yet the US is the only thing stopping Putin from invading so far.   You don’t see Putin wanting talks with other countries, just the US.   Scottie

A new study released Wednesday found no big exodus of people leaving California for other states during the COVID pandemic. But California is still losing population to domestic migration, because fewer people than usual are moving in from other parts of the United States.  One of the top reasons people are leaving is housing prices.   However the satisfaction rate is higher in California than most red states.   Scottie

Henry Payne Comic Strip for January 18, 2022

What the right wing hates is that main stream media is reporting the reality of Covid and the truth about the medical treatments / precautions.    They have to try to vilify Dr. Fauci because he disputes their lies.   As the mainstream media tells people the Covid truth the right wing media has to try to vilify them over this subject.  This one was so stupid I did not even bother to leave a comment on the site.   Scottie

The right wing is always trying to slam Biden with being inarticulate.   Apparently they have forgotten their two favorite guys Bush Jr and tRump.  Neither could speak in full sentences.   Scottie

Al Goodwyn Editorial Cartoons Comic Strip for January 20, 2022

Yeah, giving all citizens a the right to votes is too radical for Goodwyn.   A.G. is happy that the repubs are blocking radical things like lifting children out of poverty and making it easier for the lesser people to vote.  Protecting voting rights and trying to pass a sorely needed infrastructure bill is NOT A RADICAL AGENDA!!!

Attacking the capitol and trying to overturn an election is a “racial agenda”.  Scottie

Steve Kelley Comic Strip for January 20, 2022

Seriously? This is now how desperate Steve Kelley has become? This is how low he has to stoop when he can find nothing connected to reality?

As soon as I see someone throw out the name, “George Soros,” I know we are truly in the la-la-la cult extremist wacko zone. George Soros a Marxist?

George Soros came to the U.S. at age 15 as a Holocaust survivor with NOTHING and became a multi-billionaire INVESTMENT CAPITALIST. He comes as close as anything to representing a self-made CAPITALIST success story. He played your game and beat you at it.

Soros’ real crime? He had the NERVE to remember where he came from and seek to retain a system that helps those with less advantage, so as a result, this most successful INVESTMENT CAPITALIST gets labelled as a communist.

The difference between George Soros and the Koch brothers, Walton heirs, Mercer heirs, Mitt R-money, DeVos family, Steve Forbes, Bush family, and of course Donald Trump and his kids is that NONE OF THEM got rich by working hard — they inherited everything from Daddy.

SOROS is the only TRUE CAPITALIST among them. The rich elite TrumpubliCONs, who support tax giveaways for the few richest elites and massive corporate welfare, want SOCIALISM FOR THE RICH, and brutal market capitalism for everyone else.

If you support corporate Republican socialists and spit in the face of a true SELF-MADE CAPITALIST, then YOU ARE THE MARXIST.   Scottie
